RGS-IBG International Conference – 27-29 August 2014 Some overlap, but also some differences in areas with high or low percentages of 16-19 age group in 1901/1911, and in 2001/2011. RGS-IBG International Conference – 27-29 August 2014 Rather less overlap in areas with high or low percentages of 65+ age group in 1901/1911, and in 2001/2011. RGS-IBG International Conference – 27-29 August 2014 Mixed pattern, but some areas had high or low increases/decreases in percentages of 16-19 or 65+ age group in 1901/1911 and in 2001/2011. RGS-IBG International Conference – 27-29 August 2014 Local Moran’s I analysis reveals some spatial clustering of percentage differences in both age groups, but a swathe of OAs where results are non-significant.

  • London and Middlesex in the 1660S Introduction: the Early Modern
    London and Middlesex in the 1660s Introduction: The early modern metropolis first comes into sharp visual focus in the middle of the seventeenth century, for a number of reasons. Most obviously this is the period when Wenceslas Hollar was depicting the capital and its inhabitants, with views of Covent Garden, the Royal Exchange, London women, his great panoramic view from Milbank to Greenwich, and his vignettes of palaces and country-houses in the environs. His oblique birds-eye map- view of Drury Lane and Covent Garden around 1660 offers an extraordinary level of detail of the streetscape and architectural texture of the area, from great mansions to modest cottages, while the map of the burnt city he issued shortly after the Fire of 1666 preserves a record of the medieval street-plan, dotted with churches and public buildings, as well as giving a glimpse of the unburned areas.1 Although the Fire destroyed most of the historic core of London, the need to rebuild the burnt city generated numerous surveys, plans, and written accounts of individual properties, and stimulated the production of a new and large-scale map of the city in 1676.2 Late-seventeenth-century maps of London included more of the spreading suburbs, east and west, while outer Middlesex was covered in rather less detail by county maps such as that of 1667, published by Richard Blome [Fig. 5]. In addition to the visual representations of mid-seventeenth-century London, a wider range of documentary sources for the city and its people becomes available to the historian.

  • Environmental Studies. the Construction of an 'A' Level Syllabus
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 070 635 SE 015 199 AUTHOR Carson, S. McB. TITLE Environmental Studies. The Construction of an IA, Level Syllabus. INSTITUTION National Foundation for Educational Research in -England and Wales, London. PUB DATE 71 NOTE 157p. EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$6.58 DESCRIPTORS Content Analysis; *Curriculum Development; *Curriculum Guides; *Environmental Education; Foreign Countries; Reports; *Secondary Education IDENTIFIERS England ABSTRACT In response to the increasing social concern for the quality of the environment and its conservation, and the need to ensure that all pupils in their final years of schooling be brought to share that concern, teachers in Hertfordshire, England, have constructed an 'A' level curriculum or syllabus of environmental studies for the sixth form. Based on an interdisciplinary approach, the studies enable students to examine the ecological interrelatedness of the environment and the place of man, the impact of human society on the environment, and the possibilities of management and control. Presented in this report is a review of the emergence and present state of environmental studies in Britain followed by an assessment of the theme or content of environmental studies/sciences. The approach to such studies is discussed from various points of view: sociological, biological, urban--rural, and world conservation problems. Subject information and teaching notes for the syllabus are developed in four sections:(1) processes and systems of the natural environment and the limits of the resource base, (2) the ecosystem, (3) tie interaction of man and the environment, and (4) environmental conflicts and planning: a field study. Criteria for examinations and an extensive list of resource materials are also included.

  • Inside out Soap Operas
    Inside Out Soap operas WORKSHEET A It happens over and over again in the fictional district of Walford in east London. One of the residents of Albert Square says something dramatic or discovers something unexpected, there is a brief moment of silence, then a drumbeat, then a familiar theme tune – the final moments of any episode of Eastenders , one of Britain’s most popular TV soap operas, are always like that. First broadcast in 1985, Eastenders is still going strong; there are four half-hour episodes every week and they all regularly attract around eight million viewers (out of a total British population of sixty million). On Christmas Day in 1986, when the storyline was particularly exciting, a record thirty million people tuned in. However, Eastenders is neither the longest-running nor the most popular British soap; both those honours go to Coronation Street , which follows the lives of fictional characters in the northern English city of Manchester. It has been on air since 1960 and its recent audiences have been very slightly higher than those for Eastenders . What both shows have in common is that that they are set in working-class areas and feature social and economic problems in many of their storylines – they tend to be gritty rather than glamorous. The soap opera was born in the United States in the 1930s with the first radio broadcasts of fictional dramas that were set in one place and consisted of a series of episodes that each featured the same characters. The word ‘soap’ comes from the fact that most of the advertising slots in these radio dramas were bought by companies selling soap and other domestic products, the reason being that the shows went out in the daytime and many of the listeners were housewives.

  • The River Walk: Hammersmith Bridge to Putney Bridge
    The River Walk: Hammersmith Bridge to Putney Bridge In the early days, this section of the Fulham riverside was farm land, mainly orchards and market gardens and the Bishops of London were the Lords of the Manor. In the 18th century it would have been interspersed with large country houses and a century or so later many of these houses would have been sold or fallen into disrepair to be replaced by industrial undertakings and commercial wharves. By the end of the 20th century these in turn had been largely replaced by or converted to apartment blocks and cafes. Almost the first thing you notice walking along the towpath south from Hammersmith Bridge is the inlet known as Parrs Ditch just before Riverside Studios. This marks the historic boundary between Hammersmith and Fulham and would have been a main route from the river to the village of Hammersmith. The watercourse is now culverted underground and one of “London’s Lost Rivers”. If you were on the shore, you might see this plaque on the river wall. The Riverside Studios reopened in November 2019 following the closure of the old studios in 2014. The former Studios and the neighbouring Queen's Wharf have been replaced by this new state of the art theatrical and media building across both sites with apartments above. The old studios were associated with some famous films, such as The Seventh Veil (1945) starring James Mason, The Happiest Days of Your Life (1950) starring Margaret Rutherford and Father Brown (1954) starring Alec Guinness. In 1954 the studios were bought by the BBC and many well known programmes including Dixon of Dock Green, Hancock’s Half Hour and Z Cars were filmed there.
